A Low Loader for Sale that Makes Moving Heavy Loads Simple

The versatility of low loaders means they’re suitable not only for the largest and heaviest of items. They can also be used to transport smaller pieces of equipment in quantity. Whatever the type or combination of load, it is the sheer carrying capacity of a low loader that often gives it the edge over other forms of transport.

Variable Designs and Features for Different Loads

A low loader is essentially a flat bed trailer that is made for the transportation of large pieces of heavy equipment. However, they can be available in a number of variants and have features that mean they are very flexible in use:

  • two deck levels similar to a drop deck trailer where the main deck at the rear is larger, intended for carrying the main cargo, and lower than the forward deck
  • a low loader semi trailer that only has axles at the rear and attaches to the prime mover truck via the fifth wheel coupling
  • swan neck or extended beam trailers that have longer lengths and are intended for very long and heavy cargoes.

All our low loaders are constructed from high-grade steel that provides exceptional strength and durability when carrying really heavy loads. They can have:

  • extended lengths or wider decks to accommodate the loads you need to carry
  • multiple axle combinations that spread the load, preventing damage to road surfaces and bridges due to excessive weight and ensuring adherence to weight restriction regulations
  • air bag suspension that allows height adjustment and provides maximum stability when carrying really heavy loads
  • extendable ramps to make loading and unloading a simple task.

Due to them being low to the ground and having a low centre of gravity, low loaders are ideal for carrying equipment that is tall as well as heavy. They have great stability and are little affected by strong winds so are a very safe and secure form of transport.
